Macross 30: The Voice that Connects the Galaxy Has These Pilots And Mechs

Macross 30: The Voice that Connects the Galaxy will bring different Macross characters from every series together in an original story. The game is described as an action RPG featuring mechs, and today, Namco Bandai shared screenshots of some of the pilots and units you’ll see in the game.

You can find these below, immediately after the following screens:

Hikaru Ichijyo | VF-1S:

Isamu Alva Dyson | YF-19:

Shin Kudo | VF-0A Ghost Booster:

Basara Nekki | VF-19 Kai Fire Valkyrie:

Alto Saotome | VF-25 with Super Pack:

Macross 30: The Voice that Connects the Galaxy will be released in February 2013 for the PlayStation 3.

VF-25 is super hot, but my favorite pilot is Isamu, I wish you could switch pilots and units around~
Anyway looks good so far, kinda like a full blown video game version of the Hybrid Pack, tho HUD is different.

No chance. We have not got a Macross anything in over a decade. Even if they tried they would have to deal with harmony gold the owners of robotech and they always give macross problems.

Damn this damn game. I’ve been waiting for the inevitable Macross 30th anniversary that would bring together all the Macross shows into one since every Macross ends with the characters vanishing into space. I just knew it was a reason to bring them back together….

And now… I’ll have to fully learn Japanese to ever see what the outcome would have been. Looks amazing though.

You know if this Mech game is awesome, and I don’t have to pay attention to the story (if so, I hope it’s all directly based of anime or something ), I’d like to buy this game I guess…
Though English would be awesome, but I guess according to TvTropes, due to all the licensing issues, chances are probably 0.1%.
But according to Simon the Digger, that should be 100%.

It’s really just one company that’s blocking the process. One annoying company……

Harmony Gold

WonderSteve

Anyone here with more knowledge on the Harmony Gold problem want to explain what is going on?

I heard about it. But I remember seeing ADV releasing the original Macross on DVD years ago (with Mari Iijima as the English cast for Minmay!)

So…do they have some kind of selective license?

Budgiecat

It’s been going on for years and years. Best to just wiki it. Very stubborn company. Law suits upon law suits etc

Göran Isacson

Oh man Alto, if you could ever have that much swag in the actual anime.. also, a Minmay that is not lost in a black hole! I wonder if they’ll actually spin a story out of that or if it will just be her, showing up and being perfectly fine with no explanation. fans will most likely eat it up anyhow, but it would be nice if they adressed it somehow.

It should be noted that Shin Kudo is the guy on the right in that particular picture, the one with the mole.

“THIS JUST IN. THE PROTAGONISTS OF THE SHOWS WILL BE PLAYABLE.”

No frigging kidding?

I get that it’s a slow day, but how about an update when we have some pilots and VFs that AREN’T absolute givens?

wahyudil

where is VF21 and VF21 EX Nightmare?
